Default camber kit adjustment HELP!

i picked up a new set of wheels +28 offset and they poke out from the fenders i have omni power front and rear camber kits. last night i adjusted the front camber kit to the most negative camber possible. and now it tucks in how i like. but is that too much camber for a daily driver? i have lifetime alignment at firestone but they wont touch my after market camber kits. so i will be adjusting the camber kits myself and taking it to firestone for alignment. also does the rear camber have to be same to the same as the front? and lastly is there anyway i can measure the degrees of camber for the front and rear to get an acurate set-up?

For a daily driver you will probably eat up tires pretty quick. It is better to have the front camber exceed the rear camber for you best cornering abillity. if you want to take it to the dragway, set the front camber to 0 so you get the best traction and the rear camber at 0 so it takes the least amount of road force to turn the wheel. also to find out accuratly your camber measurement request a printout of all the angles of alignment when you have it aligned, it will display the camber.

Also keep your eyes on the wheel bearings
